How to build and serve a target market - and why
Many people talk about ‘niching’ as if it's a marketing fad. Yes, it helps your marketing, but it only really works if you truly understand how to deliver on those promises that are implied. Carl will be drawing on his experience of building a highly successful niche practice and will discuss:
- WHY you should have a target market in mind (after all, the biggest companies in the world do)
- HOW to identify a market and then to market your services to it
